Re: Oracle install on Linux "hangs" while setup of Net8 Config Assistant

Hi and thanks for this tip..

I found these two errors in the script, that now runs withoult errors.. BUT my instaler still just stops while setting up the "Net8 config".

I have JRE installed but NOT JDK..

could that be it ?
